You can peel the patty pan squash with a vegetable peeler, but it's not necessary. Remove the seeds using a spoon and divide into chunks. For a quick cooking time, you need to chop them quite small.
Peel and coarsely chop the onion. There's no need to chop them into equal pieces, the soup will be blended anyway.
Grind the peppercorns, the easiest way is using a mortar and pestle and then combine pepper and turmeric.
Heat a dash of oil, preferably neutral oil, in a skillet and cook the chunks of squash for a few minutes. Add the onions for another few minutes along with black pepper and turmeric.
Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. As soon as it starts to boil, you turn down the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. The exact cooking time depends on the size of the pieces of squash.
Blend the soup to create a smooth soup, you can use an immersion or regular blender. Heat a dry skillet on medium-high heat and cook some grated coconut shortly until it's beautiful golden brown.
Add coconut milk to the soup and season with salt. Serve with grated coconut and chopped parsley, enjoy!
